A fresh account of one of the most controversial political assassinations in contemporary history that of Mahatma Gandhi. Based on previously unseen classified intelligence reports and police records, the book recreates the murder, the events leading up to it, and the investigation afterwards. In doing so, it unearths a conspiracy that runs far deeper than a hate crime and challenges the popular narrative that has persisted for the past seventy years. The Murderer, the Monarch and the Fakir examines the role of princely states, hypermasculinity, and a militant right-wing in the context of a nation that had just won her independence. It relies on investigative journalism and new evidence set in a strong academic framework to unpack the significance of the assassination for our times."
